  • Patent number: 10831621
    Abstract: Embodiments for policy-driven high availability (HA) standby servers in a multi-server high availability (HA) computing environment. Policies may be created that define selected sessions for a user (e.g., important sessions to the user) such that only one or more artifacts of each selected session are replicated to one or more HA standby servers. The one or more artifacts and the one or more policies of a selected session may be synchronized from a primary server to the one or more HA standby servers.

  • Publication number: 20090319945
    Abstract: A data replication management interface is provided for selecting a state for replicating data from one site to another site. A pictorial representation of and/or a command line for multiple states is displayed. A pictorial representation of a current state is displayed. Each one of the multiple states respectively corresponds to multiple steps to accomplish each one of the multiple states. The multiple states are configured to be individually selected. An individual selection of one of the multiple states causes the multiple steps for the individual selection to be accomplished. The individual selection of one of the multiple states is selected by a user without requiring the user to choose any of the multiple steps to accomplish the individual selection.
